Prayers for the Riche family.
Rip Noah.
So sad, prayers lifted up.
So tragic. Prayer for comfort to the family, peace for his close friends, grace for all to get through this strengthened by God's promises.
Very sad. Noah was in Blake Martin's wedding just a few weeks ago.
Prayers for the family from Texas.

A Louisiana Tech University student-athlete was killed in a two-car crash in Montgomery County late Friday afternoon.
Noah Riche, 22, was headed east on U.S. 270 near Joplin at 4:35 p.m. when his 2006 Honda Civic crossed the centerline and struck a westbound 2007 Chevrolet truck head-on, according to the Arkansas State Police.
Riche was pronounced dead at the scene. Walker Green, 59, of Mount Ida was injured in the crash and taken to a hospital in Hot Springs, according to state police.
Riche, a native of Madisonville, La., was about to start his fifth year at Louisiana Tech in Ruston, where he was an engineering major. He also was a javelin thrower on the school's track and field team.
Riche was on his way back to Ruston after a stint in Mount Ida, where he was working at Camp Ozark, a Christian children's camp, according to an announcement from the university.
"This is a terrible tragedy," Louisiana Tech head track and field coach Gary Stanley said. "Noah was such a bright young man that came to Louisiana Tech for all the right reasons. He was such an enjoyable young man, a great kid."
A member of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes at Louisiana Tech, Riche was scheduled to leave soon for a mission trip to El Salvador.
This young man obviously lived an amazing God filled life in such a short time. He heard, "Well done good and faithful servant" immediately after he passed away Friday.
Camp Ozark - my nephew just got back from the last 2 week session there. Supposedly it is an amazing camp for youth.
